Yesterday's Scripture Guidance


Daniel 3:17, 23 & 25

The three men said to the King; "If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us from your hand, O king."

"And these three men, Shadrach, Meschack, and AbedNego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning furnace."

The King was then astonished and said, "Look!  I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt..., and the form of the fourth man is like the Son of God."


In today's Scripture..., the prophet Daniel is re-telling what happened to Shadrach, Meschack, and AbedNego.  The King had made Daniel the Ruler over the province of Babylon. These three men had been made Administrators of Babylon by Daniel.  Meanwhile the King, Nebuchadnezzar had made an image of gold; and there was a law made that when the sounds of the horns were heard, all people must fall down and worship the image of gold, or they would immediately be thrown in the blazing furnace.  The King was told that the three men refused to worship the image of gold.  The King was furious and summoned the three men to be brought before him.  He told them that if they did not fall down and worship this idol of gold; that he would throw immediately into the blazing furnace.  Then the King boldly asked the three men..., "And who is the god that would deliver you from my hands?" (Verse 15)  Our Scripture begins with..., The three men said to the King; "If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us from your hand, O king."  My God is able to save me!  Then the Word says..., "And these three men, Shadrach, Meschack, and AbedNego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning furnace."  I will not put any other god before My God!  Try to burn me if you will!  Then our Scripture says..., The King was then astonished and said, "Look!  I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt."  God will protect me!  And finally the King realizes..., "And the form of the fourth man is like the Son of God."  Hallelujah!  Jesus is right here with me!  How can man hurt me if Jesus is right here with me?  My God is able to save me!  Try to burn me if you will..., God will protect me!  Jesus is right here with me!  I will not put any other god before My God!  Glory!  My God..., is God!  Amen.

Today..., our Scripture is speaking to Believers.  No matter what is going on in your life..., never deny God!  No matter how badly the world threatens to burn you..., never turn away from God!  Your God..., is God!  The King was going to burn the three men if they did not turn away from God.  The fire was lit, and the furnace was blazing!  And the world, who is lighting the fire is asking you..., and Who is the God that will deliver you?  The world says..., I will throw you in the fire!!!  Our Scripture begins with..., The three men said to the King; "If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us from your hand, O king."  My God is able to save me!  Do you have faith today that no matter what the world can do to you..., that My God is able to save me!  No matter what!  My God is able to save me!  The Word is encouraging Believers to fear not..., My God is able to save me!  Amen.

Today..., the Word is challenging Believers to keep their faith in God..., no matter how hot blazing furnaces of this world are.  Keep your faith that ..., My God is able to save me!  From whatever the mess is..., no matter what the threat is..., no matter what Ruler thinks they have you ready to burn!  Keep your faith in God!  My God is able to save me!  Hallelujah!  Then the Word says..., "And these three men, Shadrach, Meschack, and AbedNego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning furnace."  I will not put any other god before My God!  Try to burn me if you will!  These men had faith in God..., and were prepared to go in the burning fire before they denied God, and turned away from God!  The chose the burning furnace, rather than to turn away from God!  As Believers today..., we are pressured constantly by the world to turn away from God.  How often do you deny God?  Think about it..., are you quiet at work when you know something that is going to happen that is against God?  Do you follow the lead of man, even if it means you are walking away from God..., just to stay out of trouble, or a difficult consequence?  Believers are turning away from God often throughout a day, or week, and worshiping other images.  Money is an image..., how often do you find yourself worshiping money.  Relationships that are not centered on God, but on flesh..., is an image that turns you away from God!  Your home could be an image that turns you away from God.  Pressures and fires come at you all the time to turn you away from God!  You are being shaped by the evil in this world to turn away from God and turn to the image of evil!  You are being challenged!  I will not put any other god before My God!  Hallelujah!  Try to burn me if you will!  Amen.

Today..., our Scripture is challenging us.  How strong is your faith and loyalty to God?  What are you saying to the world when you are challenged?  The three men were being thrown into a burning furnace!  They said..., My God is able to save me!  I will not put any other god before My God!  Try to burn me if you will!  Then our Scripture says..., The King was then astonished and said, "Look!  I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt."  God will protect me!  As long as I keep my faith in God..., God will protect me!  I speak it and I believe it!  God will protect me!  Amen.

Today..., the Word is challenging each Believer.  You will be threatened with the fire of this world.  You will be asked to deny God..., and follow the images of this world.  You may be in the fire right now.  But keep your faith in God!  My God is able to save me!  I will not deny God..., try to burn me if you will!  I know that God will protect me!  The three men were in the furnace, but the King saw that they did not burn!  And someone was in the fire with them!  And finally the King realizes..., "And the form of the fourth man is like the Son of God."  Hallelujah!  Jesus is right here with me!  In the middle of my burning furnace..., Jesus is with me!  Because of your faith in God..., God has sent Jesus to be with you!   Jesus is right here with you!  Jesus is right here with me!  God has sent Jesus!  And He is right here!  I cannot burn!  As long as I keep my faith in God..., God has Jesus right here with me!  Amen.

Today..., our Scripture is encouraging us.  Keep your faith in God.  You will be threatened by the world, and all its burning furnaces!  You will!  And you may be in the midst of a fire right now.  Stand on your faith in God!  God is able to save you!  Do not deny your God..., keep your faith in the only God!  Do not let the world get you to put any God before your God!  Let the world try to burn you if they will..., God will protect you!  And always remember..., Jesus is right here with you!  Because of your faith in God..., God has sent Jesus to be with you!  Hallelujah!  Jesus is right here with me!  How can man hurt me if Jesus is right here with me?  My God is able to save me!  Try to burn me if you will..., God will protect me!  Jesus is right here with me!  I will not put any other god before My God!  Glory!  My God..., is God!  Amen.

YOU ARE A CHILD OF CHRIST!!!
